There are three gangs of heroes. No matter how wise and powerful the emperor is, if he wants to achieve something, he cannot do it alone. He must always have some outstanding staff who are sensitive to current affairs and good at calculations to achieve success, let alone being in a whirlpool.
In the middle, the prince is surrounded by enemies?
Without good staff, in an environment surrounded by powerful enemies, it is impossible to successfully inherit the throne, even to escape unscathed.
On the contrary, because Li Chengqian has already occupied a great position, as long as his own ability is above the standard and he has a few outstanding staff beside him, he can achieve great things.
In fact, Li Chengqian's performance in the early days was very good, but in the end he ended up with such a miserable end. He was really out of touch with the old masters around him who had more theory than practice.
It doesn't matter...
…
When Li Chengqian and his wife heard what Fang Jun said, they immediately lost their countenance.
Now His Majesty Li Er is already partial to child slaves. If the Crown Prince violates His Majesty Li Er's taboo again and alienates His Majesty, I am afraid it will further strengthen His Majesty Li Er's desire for easy storage.
No matter how much effort you put in, it is impossible to reverse His Majesty Li Er's thoughts...
Li Chengqian even almost blurted out the words "My teacher made a mistake on me", but at least he held back the words and quickly pulled Fang Fangjun's arm and said urgently: "Fortunately, I have Erlang's guidance, otherwise Gu Zhu would have made a big mistake!
So in Erlang’s opinion, what should we do?”
Fang Jun said: "Your Highness, please remember that you must not get involved in anything related to military power. Even if His Majesty personally leads the expedition next spring and you successfully exercise the power of supervising the country, you must make it clear to Your Majesty and request Your Majesty to personally appoint ministers to command the army and be responsible for the defense of the capital.
You will never ask."
His Majesty Li Er is a hero of his generation, and he is most conceited and proud. Such a person is headstrong and will never put all his trust in anyone, especially the son of the Crown Prince.
The more talented and strategic a person is, the more suspicious he will be. If you want to gain his trust, you must avoid touching those sensitive areas.
Li Chengqian nodded frequently and said, "I understand!"
Then he sighed and said: "I originally wanted to choose a yamen to make some achievements to show to my father, but where is the yamen that is easier to make achievements than the left and right guards?"
Although neither the emperor nor the political hall has issued a decree to cancel the curfew, the curfew in Chang'an City has existed in name only since the Mid-Autumn Festival. Chang'an City, the most majestic city in the world, has taken on a new glory, with merchants and merchants coming and going day and night.
, making the whole city more and more prosperous, commercial taxes and fees flowed to the Ministry of Civil Affairs' warehouse like a tide, and the ban on curfew was inevitable.
The Han Dynasty is a mixed bag, and the mobility of the population has doubled, making the security situation in Chang'an City deteriorating. Relying solely on the power of Jingzhao Mansion is no longer enough to stabilize the security of the capital. If the left and right guards can be controlled and rectified and restrained, Chang'an City will be safe in the short term.
It is easy to take public security to a new level.
Now he finds that he cannot get his hands on such military power that can affect the safety of the capital. Seeing that he cannot get his hands on such achievements, Li Chengqian can't hide his disappointment...
Fang Jun muttered: "Everything depends on human effort. As long as His Highness is determined and willing to make achievements to show His Majesty, why worry about not having a chance?"
Li Chengqian hurriedly asked: "What's Erlang's opinion?"
Fang Jun thought for a while and said: "Tang Guogong is currently in bed. He has not been able to go to the Ministry of Civil Affairs Yamen to take care of ministry affairs for many days. All affairs are taken care of by the two ministers. There are already people in the court admonishing him to choose another capable person.
If someone holds the position of Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, why doesn’t His Highness take the initiative to invite you to go to the Ministry of Civil Affairs and preside over the overall situation?”
Li Chengqian was slightly embarrassed and said with a wry smile: "Erlang doesn't know something. Although Gu has studied under famous masters since childhood, he is not bad when it comes to Confucian classics and history. Even if it is not as good as Qingque, it is not far behind. But this method of calculation is real.
He knows nothing about raising money and food for the Ministry of Civil Affairs and keeping accounts. It gives me a headache just to think about it, so how can I achieve results?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Crown Princess Su who had been silent all the time smiled lightly, glanced at Li Chengqian angrily, covered her lips and said with a smile: "Your Highness is ignorant of true Buddhism. Although you yourself are not good at arithmetic,
But the person in front of you is one of the few arithmetic masters in the world. Even if people like Li Chunfeng are willing to be inferior, what else do you have to worry about?"
Fang Jun hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, you are so complimentary. I am ashamed that I cannot bear it."
Princess Su held serving chopsticks in her slender hands and served the two of them with food. She smiled softly when she heard the words: "Why should Fang Shaobao belittle yourself? Now your "Mathematics" has not only become the arithmetic teaching material of the academy, but also been praised by Hongwen Hall and Chongwen Hall.
Everyone in the Taishi Bureau highly praises the many arithmetic books in the museum and the Taishi Bureau, and they all agree that it is a wonderful book that has never been seen before, and that it has reached the pinnacle of arithmetic. This is something everyone knows."
Li Chengqian put his hands on his hands and laughed: "I really can't see Mount Tai! Erlang is a scholar of heaven and man. He knows astronomy from above and geography from the bottom. His attainments in studying things and arithmetic are even more shocking in ancient times and today. With Erlang helping me, why should I worry about not being able to govern the people well?"
department?"
He picked up the wine pot, filled up the wine glass for Fang Jun himself, raised the glass and said, "Please help me, Erlang!"
Fang Jun hurriedly raised his glass and said: "I dare you not to do your best, but I will do my best!"
Li Chengqian also said: "I swear today that I will never betray you!"
The Crown Princess Su on the side also raised her wine glass and said in a clear voice: "May our two families always be friends of Qin and Jin, and never be at odds with each other for the rest of our lives!"
This is a heavier commitment than marrying Princess Lantian to Fang Jun's son. With this oath, as long as Li Chengqian can successfully ascend the throne, it will be equivalent to the Fang family being relatives of the emperor for generations. As long as they do not rebel, then
It means glory, wealth, and resting with the country!
Fang Jun was unwilling in his heart. The style of the princess of the Tang Dynasty was indeed problematic. The Fang family was originally cheated by Princess Gaoyang. Fortunately, Fang Xuanling worked hard and had great blessings. The descendants of the Fang family were not beaten to death with a single blow. Gradually, they gradually
Rise from the bottom.
But he relied on the wisdom of the time traveler to change his destiny and avoid the disaster of Princess Gaoyang. But who knows that his descendants will not be pushed into the abyss by another Princess Gaoyang in the future?
Power is a double-edged sword. There are many benefits to being close, but if you accidentally hurt yourself, it will be fatal...
But on this occasion, he was categorically not allowed to utter a word of rejection. He could only say: "I swear to be loyal to His Highness to the death and will never betray you!"
The three of them raised their glasses together and drank it all.
Fang Jun was afraid that the Crown Princess Su would mention the marriage again, so he rushed to say: "If His Highness takes charge of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, it will be possible to clean up the Ministry of Civil Affairs in a short time and achieve some results, but it will not be enough to impress Your Majesty, so we cannot
Follow the rules step by step, but make great progress in making great progress."
Li Chengqian asked humbly: "What advice does Erlang have?"
Fang Jun said: "I don't dare to take it seriously. Your Majesty is just ambitious. How can you look down on him just because he has organized the affairs of the Ministry of Civil Affairs? If you want to impress your majesty, you have to do something that will shock the world. Nowadays, the world is big
The prosperity of commerce in the Tang Dynasty also meant that the forged Kaiyuan Tongbao was no longer enough, and there was a serious shortage of money in various parts of the world. However, copper mines were scarce in the world, and mining was slow, which could not keep up with the shortage of coins. In the long run, money will be expensive and things will be cheap, and prices will rise.
As the income of the people decreases day by day, currency reform is imminent and must be carried out. Previously, ministers have advised your Majesty several times to mint more gold and silver coins and circulate them throughout the world to replace large amounts of currency. This move can temporarily alleviate the problem of money shortage. However,
How to mint more and how much to mint, but we need to control an extremely strict quantity, otherwise once it is excessive, coins will flood and prices will boil, and the harm will be extremely far-reaching."
The commercial development of the Tang Dynasty was too fast, and coin minting was far from keeping up with the growth rate of commerce, which would be very harmful in the long run. Although gold can be circulated today, there has never been an officially authorized exchange rate. Most of them are negotiated by the private sector based on the situation, and they fluctuate greatly.
.
Moreover, silver is not considered currency at all, and private transactions do not accept silver transactions even if they still adopt the primitive barter method. This makes the silver that the navy plundered from overseas sit in the warehouse in vain and is of no use.
The Tang Dynasty is now very powerful. Gold is being plundered all over the world. It has extremely high gold reserves. At this time, withdrawing from the gold standard can plunder the world's wealth to the greatest extent. When the current rapidly growing economic situation gradually stabilizes, Datang's
The scale of the economy is enough to overwhelm the world. If the gold standard is abolished and the credit currency is promoted, it can once again plunder wealth, complete primitive accumulation, and become the world's most powerful country worthy of the name, controlling the economies of all countries in its own hands.
At that time, everyone in the world will be Tang Qian, who can rival him?
